Naam Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I am moving all my asset from China to Thailand. I would be happy as a clam if I can 5% return without worrying about bottom falling out. Anybody have any good advice how I can do that? It varies from week to week, but most banks here offer some sort of deal in the 3-3.5% range. Maybe higher if your investment horizon is a bit longer? Check out the banks websites for the latest deals. if your investment horizon is a bit longer longer horizon = a pittance more yield = but exponential increase of risk (both exchange and interest rate)!

craigt3365 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 longer horizon = a pittance more yield = but exponential increase of risk (both exchange and interest rate)! I think we're getting a pittance even for short term investments! Any lower and they'll starting charging ME for my money market account!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lannarebirth Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 How Are Your Investments Doing? To early to tell but I did open escrow on a house in the states today. Not really an "investment" however. Man, those short sales are a pain in the ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
